The 4-poles LHSM with transverse bar track was designed on the base of the performance equations and the equivalent circuit model. However, the magnetic shape factors, such as Carter's and Green's coefficients, $B_{min}/B_{max}$ and leakage factors, were important in the design and analysis of LHSM. Consequently, these coefficients were computed from the analytical expressions and examined from FEM analysis in detail.

In this paper, an efficient method of a hybrid stepping motor is proposed using permeance method. To be specific, hybrid stepping motor is modelled firstly as an equivalent nonlinear magnetic circuit including the saturation effects of iron parts, and then the static holding torque of the motor is calculated as a function of each design factor via Newton-Raphson's method. To show the validities of the proposed method, a prototype of hybrid stepping motor for 5 1/4 inches FDD header drive is made and tested in laboratory. As a result, the experimental data for the static holding torque is shown to be within 10% error compared with that of the simulated results.

This paper presents the reasonable design parameters of a switched reluctance motor to drive a hybrid electric vehicle by using the equivalent magnetic circuit method. The designed motor can be redesigned by using finite element analysis as a variation of the parameter for the purpose of improving performance. This paper shows that a flat-topped current of a phase can be made from a change of the lamination stack length for high average torque and a lower torque ripple. The change of current falling time as a variation of turn-off angle was shown by finite element analysis. The core loss and copper loss were described. The torque of the redesigned motor is suitable for low and high speed ranges to drive a HEV. which is verified by the speed-torque curve.

This paper proposes a design of small controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) arrays using circular microstrip loops with frequency-insensitive characteristics. The proposed array consists of seven identical upper and lower circular loops that are electromagnetically coupled, which results in a frequency-insensitive behavior. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed feeding mechanism, the proposed array is fabricated, and its antenna characteristics are measured in a full-anechoic chamber. The operating principle of the proposed feeding mechanism is then interpreted using an equivalent circuit model, and the effectiveness of the circular loop shape is demonstrated by calculating near electromagnetic fields in proximity to the radiator. The results confirm that the proposed feeding mechanism is suitable to have frequency-insensitive behavior and induces strong electric and magnetic field strengths for higher radiation gain in extremely small antenna arrays.

This study presents a brushless DC (BLDC) motor for air management system of fuel cell modules. Magnetic equivalent circuit model and finite element analysis are used to design the motor, and an improved structure is considered to reduce a mechanical loss induced from bearing units. Finally, air blower system combined with the motor and an impeller is manufactured and output properties, such as an air pressure and an amount of flowing air, are measured. Through the experimental results, a validity of the simulated one is confirmed.

Superconducting transmission power cable is one of interesting parts in power application using high temperature superconducting wire. One of important parameters in high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) cable design is transport current distribution because it is related with current transmission capacity and ac loss. In this paper, the transport current and magnetic field distributions at conducting layers were investigated through the analysis of the equivalent circuit for HTSC power cable with shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the pitch length and winding direction was improved in case of HTSC power cable with shield layer.

This paper deals with a Double type Transverse Flux Linear Motor(TFLM) which can be applied to high power system. This type can reduce overall system volume because of the configuration which has double flux path of prototype per phase, and less number of phase and turns. This TFLM is based on permanent magnet excitation, and the pole shape is designed to reduce attraction force between stator and mover poles. In the paper, the basic configuration of double type and the principle of movement are introduced. After performing the characteristic analysis by 3-dimensional equivalent magnetic circuit network, the results are discussed.

The design and analysis of electrical machines often require analytical models for performance assessment and system simulation. Inductances are important parameters of these models. In this paper, the methods of calculating apparent and incremental inductances are introduced for a transverse flux linear motor, which has a peculiar coil shape. The computation is accomplished by nonlinear three dimensional finite element method(FEM) and equivalent magnetic circuit network(EMCN). The improved method has been verified by a test result.

When the input current wave forms of Linear Pulse Motor(LPM) is excited as three difference type such as the square, the rectangular and the micro sinusoidal wave, this paper is proposed the calculation of thrust on the base of magnetic equivalent circuit of LPM. The thrust is analyzed and compared by the analytical method, the F.E.M. and the experimental values. Also, to decide the input current wave for optimal operation condition, the vibration of LPM is experimented and estimated.

In this paper voltage distribution in stator windings of induction motor driven by IGBT PWM inverter is studied. To analyze the irregular voltage of stator winding, equivalent circuit model of inverter-cable-motor was proposed and high frequency parameter is computed by using finite element method (FEM). Electro-magnetic transient program (EMTP) analysis of the whole system for induction motor and PWM inverter is proposed. Induction motor, 50[HP], and a switching surge generator was built to consider the voltage distribution. The results of EMTP analysis compared with experimental results.
